Are Radon Mitigation Systems Worth It?

This client was originally thinking about putting a system in a year ago but the contractor was some random company and told them it was a 5-6 month waiting process. Not with us! They also mentioned seeing us at the Iowa State Fair and wanted to give us a shot. They did say we priced higher but also offered other options and a better design based on their radon levels of 15. The installation was 2 point system that will be along wall walking down the stairs. It will then route out an exit through the tiny storage room to the left of the stairs and out the garage in the insert portion towards the back. The client was a super nice guy and wanted pure reassurance that the radon mitigation system is worth. He was happy how everything turned out!

The client is a physical therapist and likes the outdoors. He has an unfinished basement with two different crawlspaces. He has access to one through a window in the basement and the other has an opening into the second crawlspace. They're about 3 feet in height and the walls have spray foam insulation on them. It was not much of a challenge but there was some work done for the first extraction point to begin with. The client was really kind in helping clear out the debris in the crawlspaces after installation. He was really happy with how the system turned out.

This client was a close friend of our techs but no special treatment here! We did check their levels first and advised the ideal system for their home. Nathan's parents would be moving with him soon. He wants to make sure his home is overall protected from radon exposure. This home has an interior system that was going to exit through the peak of the roof in the garage. Utility room is only sharing a wall with the garage but they have a metal roof. We were really careful as we still don't want to destroy the aesthetic of the home. This needed to be a 2-point system to begin with as the team was informed that their levels returned around 20s. Pretty high.  Originally designed 1 point prior to hearing that and adjustments have already been made. 

It all started when our team left an Eco blue with Nathan as their parents down the road were looking into putting a system in depending on numbers. Nathan is a cool guy and Rusty knows through a close mutual friend. This home has an interior system that was going to exit through the peak of the roof in the garage. Utility room is only sharing a wall with the garage but they have a metal roof. Exit out into the garage and try and find an exit point that doesn't look funky through the front of the home. Nathan is also after looks, so the team needs to be careful! Their levels returned below 20's. The team checked once more and Rusty realized that the home DOES NEED to be a two point system. Originally designed 1 point prior to hearing that and adjustments have already been made. The homeowners don't really care where we put the two points as long as they aren't really in the way of walking around in room.

Radon Mitigation Before Winter Starts

This client's family members were determined to create a safe home for their family after discovering high radon levels in their home, it was around 25 pCi/L. They set clear goals: reduce radon exposure, ensure a healthy environment, and increase property value before the year ends or winter officially starts. Radon Defense Midwest team guided them through the process, explaining each step. With a professional installation completed, the family gave happy feedback as they received confirmation of reduced levels after a few days. Their commitment paid off, transforming their home into a sanctuary, free from the dangers of radon exposure, and restoring their peace of mind.
